Solutions for all your 3D printing needs

Get Something 3D Printed

PLA

Our easiest material to use!
PLA (PolyLactic Acid) is a biopolymer, i.e., a biodegradable plastic. It is made from renewable raw materials such as cornstarch or sugarcane.

ABS

For parts that need to last!
Final products made with ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) are very durable, withstand a wide range of temperatures, and tend to be more flexible and less 'brittle' than those in PLA.

PETG

Best choice for parts that fit together!
PETG has very low shrinkage and produces prints with a very smooth finish. It is also more resistant to heat than PLA.

Resin

Standard Resin is formulated for models with very small features, intricate details, and that do not require mechanical or temperature strain; parts that only need to look good.

Frequently asked questions

We offer free delivery to Long Beach and some adjacent cities. Shipping elsewhere is calculated per order basis.

We even ship internationally!

If you have a specific color or finish you are looking for and have the material on hand, we can try printing your project with it. There are no additional charges but lead-time may increase.  

We do not have set-up fees but the minimum item cost per material and color is $5 before any taxes or shipping cost.

We try checking the files submitted for any errors and advice customers on what to repair.

If the go ahead is given by the customer to print a part and after it is printed it is found to be: the wrong part, wrong scale, or has errors caused by the submitted file; then the error part will be charged at 50% of the quoted value. The repaired file will be quoted as a new part since size and volume can vary. 

The error part will be documented through pictures and recycled.

If we mess up, there is no extra cost on you!

We offer student discounts of 20% off each part with given proof of enrollment in an accredited institution.
